Staying in the three-bedroom apartment was ideal for our family trip with my two adult daughters. The apartment was well-equipped and spacious, offering a stunning view of Tabletop Mountain and the marina from the balcony. However, the service had some ups and downs, from being extremely helpful to a disappointment with a limo trip error and lack of apology. The location couldn't be beaten, providing both peace and proximity to the vibrant V&A Waterfront. The dining experience was exceptional with a wide variety of fresh, delicious options. Despite some service issues, the overall stay was enjoyable with fantastic views, location, and dining.

My stay at the hotel was absolutely delightful. The rooms were not huge but very comfortable with lovely furnishings and an incredibly cozy bed. I loved the balcony overlooking the waterfront, and even the attention to detail like the air freshener in the toilet room added to the overall charm of our beautifully appointed room. The service was amazing, with incredibly wise and knowledgeable staff who were always ready to assist. The location was fabulous, offering airy views over the marina and Table Mountain on one side and the commercial shipyard on the other, and conveniently close to various shops, restaurants, and waterfront attractions. The dining experience was elegant and delicious, with a variety of items to choose from. However, there were minor delays in service, but the staff remained friendly and helpful. Overall, a wonderful stay with so much to offer.
